dark_scionThe Trans-Dimensional Acquisitions Corporation, or TDAC, is a massive multi-dimensional corporation whose primary business is the acquisition of resources to provide to its diverse clients across reality..however they deem necessary. The organization's reputation is different from dimension to dimension, as some have been exploited by it, and others have profited immensely from association with it. However, what cannot be denied, is that whatever the order, TDAC has rarely failed in its ability to acquire what its customers order. The location of the company headquarters is known only to the highest ranking executives and top employees. As a result, the highest ranking official likely to appear in a reality-of-interest is a Dimensional Acquisitions Officer, a top executive typically answering only to the Board. A DAO has access to considerable resources including, but not limited to; currency of multiple dimensions, technological resources(appropriateness determined by Board superior), mercenary armed forces, scientists, elite operatives(beings with abnormal powers or skills), and a means of dimensional travel. (Technology used by the TDAC is complicated, using the tech of species across reality, often blended together in hodgepodges that make sense only to their operators. Those of genius technical know-how can figure them out with time.) A common tactic is the use of a pocket-dimension near the reality of interest which the DAO uses as a Home Office.
The 616 Branch of TDAC:
Mordos: The DAO assigned to the 616 reality. For the most part he remains in his "Home Office" pocket dimension, leaving hands-on research to his vice-officer, Kranack. He is cold and pragmatic, measuring everything by profit-margin. More than one subordinate has been "liquidated" for costing the company unnaceptable profit losses. Mordos is composed of a type of fiery energy, partially contained within an alien containment suit he wears under his tuxedo. He is a powerful energy projector, capable of wielding his own essence with destructive force. ( http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g359/Ulap38/Comics/4046746-calculus_zpsddie7fru.jpg )
Kranack: Mordos' vice-officer and hands-on chief operative in reality 616 itself. Given the size of the reality compared to one-world dimensions, Kranack has decided to begin acquisitions research with Earth. While he shares his superior's profit-driven mentality, he is far more emotional and given to decisions based off his own arrogance, pride, and vengefulness. Kranack is superhumanly strong, capable of lifting 10 tons. He has durable scales capable of surviving gunfire. His most formidable ability is his healing factor, capable of regenerating entire limbs within days. His claws and teeth are easily able to tear through flesh and bone.

Colonel Zhar: Zhar is the leader of the 616 expeditionary force's mercenary and special operative units. Zhar is considered the ideal-image of a TDAC military officer. Loyal to the company's bottom-line, efficient, cunning, and most importantly in the eyes of his bosses - has no bleeding heart sympathy for "natives' rights". He's a pure corporate merc, willing to kill an entire dimension's population if it fills the company's, and by extension his, coffers. Zhar is a cybernetic powerhouse, capable of lifting 100 tons. His body contains various hidden armaments, including blades, guns, and explosives. He is also a highly trained fighter, who is not only a master of multiple fighting arts, but capable of learning and adapting to others quickly.

Dr. Xencotsu: Chief Researcher of the expedition. Xencotsu is a brilliant scientist, familiar with multiple fields of study and capable of learning and adapting to native sciences. Xencotsu, while never fully disobeying his corporate overlords, rarely misses an opportunity for study. Granted he's more likely to oppose the genocide of a people due to scientific interest rather than humanitarian reasoning. Xencotsu must wear an environmental suit at all times due to his species being capable of only breathing the gases of his native dimension. For defensive purposes, the suit is highly durable, with several hidden laser cannons within. He has multiple suits tailored to different environments.

Haden Blood: A extra-dimensional mercenary who has served on retainer for the TDAC for years. He considers the TDAC a good employer who has so far never failed to pay him on-time, but he has no strong loyalty to the corporation like Colonel Zhar does. He has never taken part in any of the corp's more despicable actions, and if ordered to do so, it may be the breaking point that turns him against it. Haden is super-humanly strong, capable of lifting 75 tons. He is a skilled brawler, but his style is very informal as he follows no fighting disciplines. He carries a pair of pistols with which he is highly skilled in gunfighting. Each pistol has a variety of settings for both lethality, as well as different elements including flame, ice, etc. He also carries a powerful metal cord that he can use like a lasso, capable of holding beings of great strength. ( http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g359/Ulap38/Comics/1024610-steel_12_22_zpsbaastmpv.jpg )
Virex: A special operative mercenary, much like Haden Blood. While he is as blase regarding corporate loyalty as Haden, he doesn't share the former's sense of ethics. He has persoanlly committed a series of heinous actions accross multiple dimensions for the sake of all-mighty profit. What's worse, he enjoys his work. As a result he is one of TDAC's preferred hires when dirty work needs done. He is capable of lifting 25 tons, has an armored carapace capable of withstanding a large amount of damage, and can spit a highly acidic substance capable of melting through most metals. Virex has a pair of insectile wings hidden within the carapce of his back that allow him to fly. He is also capable of beating them at great speed, generating powerful winds. He carries an assault rifle of alien design. The weapon has a variety of intensity settings as well a variety of different types of cartridges that Virex keeps on his person.

Shock troopers: These robotic soldiers are the rank-and-file troops that the company uses as its main security forces. They vary in regards to personal power. The current versions being used are only somewhat stronger and more powerful than a peak human. Each is armed with basic projectile weapons.
